Dustoff: More Than Met the Eye
Shortly after completing the U.S. Army's Rotary Wing Aviator's course, author Arnold Sampson was assigned to the 68th Medical Detachment (helicopter ambulance) in the Republic of Vietnam (RVN) where he spent much of his tour in Chu Lai. During that tour, he spent time in the unit's two field-standby sites located at Ban Me Thuot and Duc Pho, and he also had a short temporary duty stint with the 254th Medical Detachment in Nha Trang. With assignments as the unit's supply officer, acting detachment commander, executive officer, and operations officer, he became intimately involved in the day-to-day operations of a medevac unit. Seven months into his tour, he became an aircraft commander with the call sign Dustoff 85. To him, that felt like a 7-year sojourn. >After returning to the States, he earned an FAA commercial helicopter pilot's license while stationed at Fort Ord, California. He is writing this book to recount the most vivid memories of his varied experiences in the unit in hopes that telling his story might enable him to sleep better at night. He has post-Vietnam insomnia and tranquil sleep often still eludes him. With this book he is paying homage to friends who died in-country or who succumbed to the long tendrils of the war once they got home. He values them, misses them, and dedicates this book to their memories and their families.
